2 paid expansions announced for The Witcher 3

The Witcher 3 will have free DLC, CD Projekt Red has already announced that. There will also be 2 huge story expansions. Due to their size, these will be paid DLC.

Hearts of Stone is the first expansion. This DLC contains a 10-hour-plus adventure. Hearts of Stone will take you to “the wilds of No Man’s Land and the nooks and alleys of Oxenfurt, where he’ll try to complete a contract from the mysterious Man of Glass. Caught in a thick tangle of deceit, Geralt will need all his cunning and strength to solve the mystery and emerge unscathed.”

And if that’s not enough, the second expansion of The Witcher 3, called Blood and Wine, will offer you another story line that will take more than 20 hours to complete.

The first DLC will cost $9.99, and Blood and Wine will set you back $19.99. If you buy both in a bundle (expansion pass) it will cost you $24.99.

That’s not a lot of money for all those extra hours of gameplay. Or, as CD Projekt Red co-founder Marcin Iwiński says, “Both our expansions offer more hours of gameplay than quite a few standalone games out there.”

The Witcher 3 is already huge

So, if you think the 200+ hours it takes to completely finish the Witcher 3 aren’t enough, then these 2 DLC’s will surely sound like music to your ears.

Iwiński continues, “We remember the time when add-on disks truly expanded games by delivering meaningful content. As gamers, we’d like to bring that back. We’ve said in the past that if we ever decide to release paid content, it will be vast in size and represent real value for money.”

The Witcher 3 will also have 16 DLC’s that are completely free to everyone who buys the game. These are -obviously- a lot smaller than Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine.
